Nationwide polling shows that the majority of Americans don’t believe Republican leadership in the House of Representatives will change things for the better or enact policies that will benefit them.
The poll also found that Rep. Kevin McCarthy , the next presumptive Speaker of the House, has a negative approval rating, with only 12 percent of Americans saying they approve and 34 percent saying they disapprove. Most Americans said they don’t know enough about McCarthy to form an opinion on him.
McCarthy has technically served as House Republican leader since 2014. However, from that year until 2019, he was the second-highest-ranking Republican official, as John Boehner and Paul Ryan served as speakers of the House during those years. From 2019 on, McCarthy has served as House Minority Leader.
The fact that most Americans don’t have an opinion on McCarthy could work in his favor, but he also faces some challenges, said Patrick Murray, director of the Monmouth University poll. “McCarthy starts off as a blank slate for most of the public. It will be interesting to see if he can build the same kind of party loyalty as [Nancy] Pelosi — that is if he actually gets the chance to succeed her,”McCarthy faced opposition from dozens of members of his own party in the House when the GOP caucus held leadership elections last month,When the House convenes next month to name a new speaker, McCarthy will need at least 218 votes from within the chamber.
